Yes! I love max lifts. It’s fun to see how far you’ve come (or disappointing sometimes). I want to try the over/under grip. I’ve been using the hook grip, I don’t know if that’s correct, but I tend to pinch the skin on my thumbs. Is that avoidable or do I just suck it up and deal with it? See you all tomorrow!

Taping the thumbs should help. As Paul said, I would still use the hook grip. Deadlifts, to me, are harder on the hands than Pull Ups. So whatever you can do – taping, over under – you should do. Everything except for gloves which really messes with your grip, in my opinion.
